When you don't have time to make your own, check out the ready made gifts available at Pineapple Cove.

Both these gifts are great for the office, or to have around the house to jot down notes. The first is a post-it holder, covered with an slot for an adorable little pen.

Then, we also have coaster clip-boards with matching jumbo clip. These come in a variety of colors and styles.

Thanks for stopping by & checking out our blog!

Mahalo Iris!

I wanted to share this beautiful RAK from Iris...she came by for Sally's Pizza Box class yesterday and dropped off this "Spam Can" Girls Day goodie!

Can you believe it's a can of spam? You know we all love Spam here in Hawaii - why not recycle the containers? Iris says it's super easy - simply take a 3"x12" DP paper to wrap around the can and decorate to your hearts content. Then, simply use some pliers to dull down the sharp edge where the can is opened. Iris recommends that you use the Red Tacky tape to adhere the DP to the can - as the regular Meriken tape doesn't stick well against the metal.

Look at the homemade goodies she stuffed inside. Makes such a durable container that can be re-used. Thanks Iris!! I love it!
